CBA is not interested in rapid development of day-to-day lending

In spite of the fact that the Central Bank of Azerbaijan (CBA) has created an opportunity to issue daily loans to non-bank credit organisations ( NBCOs) in 2024, it is not interested in the rapid development of this type of lending.

This was stated by CBA chairman Taleh Kazimov on 22 January at a press conference on the decision of the structure he heads over parameters of the interest rate corridor.

‘Daily loans pose a serious risk for both financial consumers and financial structures,’ he said.

It is worth reminding that in keeping with the CBA-approved ‘Rule on Management of NBCO credit risks’, credit institutions were allowed to issue daily loans in the national currency in the amount not exceeding AZN 500, with a daily interest rate not exceeding 0.3% and maturity not exceeding 45 days.
